  • Change the ownership of power_supply structure from each driver
    implementing the class to the power supply core.

    The patch changes power_supply_register() function thus all drivers
    implementing power supply class are adjusted.

    Each driver provides the implementation of power supply. However it
    should not be the owner of power supply class instance because it is
    exposed by core to other subsystems with power_supply_get_by_name().
    These other subsystems have no knowledge when the driver will unregister
    the power supply. This leads to several issues when driver is unbound -
    mostly because user of power supply accesses freed memory.

    Instead let the core own the instance of struct 'power_supply'. Other
    users of this power supply will still access valid memory because it
    will be freed when device reference count reaches 0. Currently this
    means "it will leak" but power_supply_put() call in next patches will
    solve it.

    This solves invalid memory references in following race condition
    scenario:

    Thread 1: charger manager
    Thread 2: power supply driver, used by charger manager

    THREAD 1 (charger manager) THREAD 2 (power supply driver)
    ========================== ==============================
    psy = power_supply_get_by_name()
    Driver unbind, .remove
    power_supply_unregister()
    Device fully removed
    psy->get_property()

    The 'get_property' call is executed in invalid context because the driver was
    unbound and struct 'power_supply' memory was freed.

    This could be observed easily with charger manager driver (here compiled
    with max17040 fuel gauge):

  • Add new structure 'power_supply_config' for holding run-time
    initialization data like of_node, supplies and private driver data.

    The power_supply_register() function is changed so all power supply
    drivers need updating.

    When registering the power supply this new 'power_supply_config' should be
    used instead of directly initializing 'struct power_supply'. This allows
    changing the ownership of power_supply structure from driver to the
    power supply core in next patches.

    When a driver does not use of_node or supplies then it should use NULL
    as config. If driver uses of_node or supplies then it should allocate
    config on stack and initialize it with proper values.

  • Pull staging tree update from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
    "Here's the big staging tree merge for 3.9-rc1

    Lots of cleanups and updates for drivers all through the staging tree.
    We are pretty much "code neutral" here, adding just about as many
    lines as we removed.

    All of these have been in linux-next for a while."

  • There is a forever loop calling iio_channel_release() because the
    "chan < " part of the "chan < ARRAY_SIZE()" is missing. This is in both
    the error handling on probe and also in the remove function.

    The other thing is that it's possible for some of the elements of the
    adc_bat->channel[chan] array to be an ERR_PTR(). I've changed them to be
    NULL instead. We're still not allowed to pass NULLs to
    iio_channel_release() so I've added a check.

    Finally, I removed an unused "chan = ARRAY_SIZE(gab_chan_name);" statement
    as a small cleanup.

  • Driver to allow use of the ADC drivers supported by the IIO
    subsystem for battery status monitoring. Connecting this
    driver to the relevant IIO device requires registration of
    the appropriate iio_map structure array by the IIO device
    driver (usually from platform data). If specified the driver
    will also make use of a gpio to provide interrupt driven
    notification that the battery is fully charged.

    In last version:
    Addressed concerns raised by lars:
    a. made the adc_bat per device.
    b. get the IIO channel using hardcoded channel names.
    c. Minor issues related to gpio_is_valid and some code
    refactoring.

    In V1:
    Addressed concerns raised by Anton:
    a. changed the struct name to gab(generic adc battery).
    b. Added some functions to neaten the code.
    c. Some minor coding guidelines changes.
    d. Used the latest function introduce by lars:
    iio_read_channel_processed to streamline the code.

    In V2:
    Addressed concerns by lars:
    a. No need of allocating memory for channels.Make it array.
    b. Code restructring, coding style and following kernel guidelines changes
    suggested by him.

    In V3:
    Addressed conerns by Anton:
    a. Added the copyright.
    b. Coding guidelines changes suggested by him.
    c. Added Makefile and Kconfig
